BRUSSELS, March 30.-The Belgian
paper. La Meuse, prints the report OF con-
versaton which it says Bismarck had with
an illustrious Belgian during the recent
fetes at Berlin in honor of the Goth ami
versary of the emperor's birth. According
to this report the German chancellor said
that he had abandoned the idea OF neutral
izing Reichland (Alsace-L orrainel because
it would be dangerous deluson. The
neutrality of any province, he said, was only
preservable as long as the people We're pre-
pared to defend their neutrality by force OF
arms, and he could not admit that such a
determination existed in Reichland.
Therefore" SAID the chancellor, 1--WE in
tena the provinces shall remain Incorporated

for work against France and for us they
have the advantage of removing by several
days the starting point for all aggressive

IL Was a Hoax.

LONDON, March 30.-A sensation was
caused to- day by a report that yesterday
evening an attempt on the life of Hon.
A. j. Balfour. chief secretary for Ire
land. was discovered and frustrated. In
the mail at the Oxford street branch of the
postoftice there was small box addressed
to Mr.. Balfour. The mail clerk thought
the package was peculiar and suspicious
looking, and he obtained permission to
have it opened. 1t was found to contain
small phial filled with what was thought to
be an explosive compound, connected with
springs attached to the bottle. Careful in
vestigation to-day has. however, shown
that the whole thing was hoax. The box
was jewelers. scarf-pin box, and the small
bottle inside was filled with brown
powder made up probably of pulverized
coffee.

Ihe Railroads Reach for the Last
Penny as Usual.

The grain dealers complain that the rail-
roads are refusing to supply cars to allow
shippers to take advantage of the present
low rates before the interstate commerce
Dill goes into effect. AS sample case it is
stated that shippers on Saturday were re-
fused Gals to move 800 carloads of wheat
to Chicago. Orders for some of the cars
were obtained from the general offices of
the railroads, and then the transfer COM
pany refused to move them, claiming that it
was against instructions. This, OF course,
prevents the grain from reaching Chicago
before April l, so it could be rebilled before
the interstate law goes into effect.

lowed to Vote.
The city clerk has been advised by the
city attorney that the new election law SAYS
that no person unregistered can vote at the
coming election, 1t will be necessary for
all persons desiring to vote to register on
Friday or Saturday. Section II of the new
election law is as follows:
The vote of no person whose name does not
appear on said registers as qualified voter
shall be received by the judges of any cleo
tion except the vote of a person whose vote
was registered and erased, as provided IN the
last section, and who takes the oath and
makes proof required by section so, which
defines what the proof shall be.
The city clerks decision, it will be seen,
will make it impossible to swear in votes
except i'll eases or erasure and while there
may be question as to the correctness of
the construction Of the law, the safe way
for persons wishing to vote is to see that
their names are on the polling lists.

1t has just come to the knowledge of the
health authorities that the body of a young
lady was kept for several days before burial,
and without notice of death having been
given. Investigation showed that the cause
of death, was consumption, and that certain
friends persuaded the mother that it might
be a case of suspended animation. They
so worked upon the mothers fears OF
premature burial that she allowed the
body to be kept in the house until I'M
doubted signs of decomposition appeared
before any preparations for the grave were
made. The deceased was most estimable
young lady, % years of age and the family
is one of responsibility, quite prominent in
